A resident on James H. Young Street told police that someone fired shots into her home on Sunday.

The woman said she was sitting in her living room holding her 19-month-old daughter when a man ran into her house about 7:15 p.m. and she heard gunshots, according to an incident report.

The woman said she fell to the floor when she heard the shots. The man who ran into the apartment told officers that he was standing outside and he saw two men who he thought were going to try to break into the woman's apartment, so he ran inside, the report states.

The man said when he ran inside, the two men fired shots. Officers noted in the report that the front door had seven bullet holes or dents. Two bullets went through the screen door and ricocheted off the main door, almost hitting the people inside, according to the report.

A witness reported seeing three men in dark jumpsuits near the apartment at the time. One was wearing what looked like a white shirt on his head, the report states.
